goofs and mistakes as a sponsor

Hi all,

One of my sponsees got a year recently and I realized two days after the meeting that I had missed the meeting I was supposed to present her with her medallion at.

I called immediately once I realized it, apologized and owned my mistake. She was actually hoping I had forgotten about the medallion presentation, not much for attention, but it was still my responsibility to be there and I wasn't. She forgave me, but I still have some lingering guilt about being irresponsible.

I did have a little gathering for her and gave her a present and her medallion on her actual anniversary so I'm not a complete derelict!

Anyway, obviously sponsors are human and make mistakes that we learn how to make amends for later. I was wondering if anyone has some experience, strength and hope in this area.:comfort

Enjoy your twenty-four,

Virginia
